ADJECTIVES Comparative and superlative adjectives compare attributes between two or more things. Examples: My mom is a better bowler than your mom! Interrogative adjectives ask questions that seek an adjective as an answer. Some of these words can be used as pronouns if they precede a preposition. Examples: Which baker blends better batter? (adjective) COMPLEMENTS Adjectives can also function as subject complements. Such adjectives occur right after linking verbs and complement, or complete, the idea expressed by the subject. An object complement follows the direct object it modifies. All complements rename or describe their subject or object. Examples: Tarzan was strong. (Strong describes the subject Tarzan.) |
